Discussion If you could magically become somebody else - would you give life another try?

[Klee]

I think I would. Although I can recognise parts of my life that I'm so grateful for, I feel like I can't get the proper enjoyment from them, because I am stuck in my body, with my face, my voice, being myself. Does anybody relate to this? Self loathing I suppose.

 

[Cutepoison]

Yes, I would, but that would have to be totally restarting everything, like no memories of past and no experiences of the past

 

[Oyoy]

Yes

 

[bpdandme]

Yes I would be someone rich ideally

 

[watereyes]

I wouldnt. Life is meaningless, no matter if its a happy or painful one.

 

[LadyApple]

I would not want to become anyone else and I'm done with life. I've given it too many tries and now I'm just waiting for the bus. I like these questions though.

 

[mediocre]

It would depend on whether or not the new life was better than my own or not. If it was better yes I think so. If I had the ability to live a normal life with all it's ups and downs then probably yes.

 

[itsamadworld]

I would not. I don't think many people are truly happy and I don't feel that anyone is free in this world, imo. One can have money, looks, a good job, a wonderful family- But all of that can be taken away at the drop of a hat. Also, I think it's human nature to never be satisfied. Even Rockefeller (the riches man in the world), "I just need one more dollar." It's like in that recent song "Never Enough for Me" - It's like in a Prince song "When Doves Cry" - he said of his mother- she's never satisfied.....It's just human nature...

 

[eksded]

Hell no

 

[TheGoodGuy]

Yes

And I want to be extremely good looking with perfect physical and mental health.

 

[Bct]

Depends on if I could get to choose whose life I would become to, or if I couldn't get to choose, if their life is better than mine now. If it's still horrible, at least I know that I'm able to end it.

Regarding Prince, I still can't believe he already passed away exactly 4 years ago.

 

[Jumper Geo]

Yes I would, the son of a super rich down to earth lovely caring family, although money doesn't solve everything, it certainly helps.

 

[mote]

Yes, if one or two of the main grievances/mistakes in my life could be revoked, I could fix and deal with the rest. I just wanted to help the planet and alleviate the pain here the best I could.

 

[Notwinnernotawin]

No, because I'm not the bigger problem. If I could erase some memories and some people from my sorroundings and my past then I guess I would give life another try.

 

[braketimez]

Oh yeah. I would want to be someone who is highly creative. I know that would come with its struggles, but Just to be freely creative would be a dream come true. This depression constipates my brain.

 

[Woodnote]

Yes, I would.

 

[William Barker]

Another life is what I'm counting on.

 

[Blackpoolbootz]

Yes absolutely. Not a case that I had a shit childhood cause I Didn't I cannot blame anyone but myself. I would be that person who was stronger sorted out issues immediately and not done the easy thing. Someone who doesn't have faulty brain wiring and would grabbed life with both hands.

 

[Fish Face]

Yes, definitely. Didn't have to be rich, good looking, clever, just normal, living a normal life. I never managed it and won't.

[Evermore]

Yes! I always think about what life would be like if I was someone else . I can almost imagine myself switching bodies with other people , seeing ,thinking and feeling just as them . It would be nice, if it were possible . Nobody inpeticular I'd choose to be though ,just someone different .

 

[PlathWannaBe]

I think if I could just be attractive, that would magically make me feel much better.

I guess it's sad, because tha shows how much I depend on other people's approval, but since I've been single my whole life and not really good looking, it would be nice to actually experience that. I'm tired of being alone.

 

[Weightoftheworld]

If I could go back about 15 years and redo most of my life, I absolutely would. Over the course of time, I've just accumulated too much baggage and now I'm unable to carry it.

 

[Despondent]

No, I'd rather just be dead. my life itself should have been something worth wanting to live for, but it's not

 

[Sabriel]

Nope. There's something wrong with this place and being someone else wouldn't change that.

 

[Nem]

I remember reading a great quote in a magazine. It said if you were in a room with a bunch of people and everyone had to put their troubles on the table, you would grab yours and run out of there.
At the time I agreed with that quote but now, I think I would trade mine for someone else's problems. Things have just gotten so bad that I never thought they could sink to this level, I know where things went wrong and feel like an idiot for not realizing that a certain relationship was toxic

peace/hugs

 

[Help_Me]

I think i could try, but i'm sure i would come to conclusion that life is horrible anyway

 

[selfhater]

i hate life either way but being someone else with different appearance and everything that is my biggest wish so yes

 

[s1mplem3]

Yes.

 

[Deleted member 17331]

No, because even the candy is sickening.

Life is based on boredom and suffering. It's a cycle.

We will never be satisfied.

 

[Mistake of Nature]

No. I don't want any part of any existence.
